Freak of a Friend.


Albert A. Munger is a rich, young
Chicago bachelor. Two weeks ago he
dropped into the National bank of
Illinois and found George A. Mckay,
the assistant cashier, holding his head
in his hands and looking very pale
Mckay is Munger's cousin, and they
are almost inseperable companions.
Mckay has been in the bank for 15
years, and was suffering from over
work Munger wanted him to take a
vacation and offered to pay his ex-
penses i he wonld accompany hin, to
Europe. Mckay wanted to go, hut.
the bank could not very well spare
him. and he could not afford to throw
up his position Munger coaxed IN
vain, and then sud denly left the bank.
Going to the office OF his attorney. he
gave instructions to have deed
drawn up transferring the Hastings
block to Mckay. The building is
worth S120. 600. After recording the
deed he returned to the bank, handed
it to his cousin. and told him to re-
sign at once and be ready TO sail in a
fortnight. The cousins started for
Europe.

and mute as if grief had turned
me to stone, I stood beside the win
dow and looked out on the disma
street. And as the minutes passed
this maddening thought occurred tc
me. Would my husband, the husband
that | loved, desert me now for this
beautiful Natalie;would his loyaltyand
honor be forgotten in an unholy pas
sion? My hands and cheeks and brow
were deathly cold, and yet my brain
was on fire. The objects on the street

Llndon noislessly entered the room
There was a tender sadness in his eyes
as he looked upon my paid face, and
and with the sobbing cry of ''Oh! hus-

arms
Myrtle, wife, said he, "when a veal
ago Istood before the altar and swore
to love you until death there was a
perjury on my tongue. Even then az
image that was not yours was en-
shrined within my heart, and the
haunting eyes ofNatalie Chester seem
ed to mock my firm resolve to be at
least a faithful husband. You may
have known my secret, poor, patient
wife, and yet reproach nor taunt has
never passed your lips. Well, I've
met Natalie Chester again to learn my
passion had burnt itself to ashes
And now, this Christmas eve, sweet
wife, when every heart-throb tha,
beats against your own is yours and
only yours, I ask you to forgive me
and forget the past, for I know such
love as yours could pardon even a
greater wrong"

Susan B. Anthony in Raptures

Susan B. Anthony in Raptures.
This is the way Miss Anthony went
into raptures over the vote on female
suffrage IN the United States senate
recently:
Does the vote in the senate mean
progress?" repeated Miss Anthony
after me when asked her that ques-
tion. "Does the vote in the senate
mean progress?" Well, should say it
did. It was the longest leap the suf-
frage movement has ever taken. We
have been waiting and working twen-
ty-two years for this blessed day. We
are prouder and happier than we can
can tell. We haven't had such good
time in years as at our meeting this
morning. Just think oft! Twenty-Five
Years work eliminated yesterday in
the voteln the senate" and Miss An
thony pulled herself together proud
II. This is the first time," she contin-
ued, "thatthe question of woman suf-
sfrage has ever beenvoted upon directly
In congress. Progress" she exclaimed
again, II should think it was progress;
We have been coming to congress for
twenty-five years, and in this blessed
day OF our Lord we havegot vote at
last. While it does not come within a
long way of the two-thirds that we
mustget, there was as large a vote in
our favor as we expected. Sixteen sena-
tors voted aye, seven more were pair
ed in our favor, and that makes
twenty three. Then there were FIVE
or six absent who would have voted
with us, which shows that from twen-
ty-five to thirty senator's are in favor
OF woman suffrage. Now, isn't that
progress?''

Rough on the Little Women
Big Girls Wanted.

From the Cincinnati Sun.
Few have any idea of the trials and
tribulations of cultivated women,
small in stature, who seek honest en-
ployment in this city. The little lady
may bemodest, pretty, neatly dressed,
afable i'll conversation and agreeable
IN manner, yet almost every avenue
leading to respectable living is closed
to her. The shop-keeper picks his fe-
male help in the spirit that animates
him when he makes display ofgoods
in his windows And it must be con-
fessed that practically, if not theoreti
cally, he is right. A commanding
and fine looking woman will sell q
sealskin cloak in five cases out of
six, where little body would fail
The little lady may be refined gold,
but there Is nothing impressive about
her. Her small stature is misfor-
tune that he cannot remedy. She
cannot becomes floor walker in a dry
goods emporium, for she lacks the
swoop and carriage and the lordly
aplomb which awe employees and at
tracts purchasers. She has great
trouble in securing even a place be-
hind the counter. Her fragility and
tiny size are in the way. She cannot
reach the goods on g. top shelf, nor
can she return them after a sale is
made without climbing to the count
er, which ungraceful act would quench
the last spark of dignity left by ma
ture at her birth. She is out of place,
again, in the parlors of a fashionable
milliner OR dressmaker. You may
find her sitting in a little back room
adjoining, stitching away in a bad
light and worse atmosphere, with
her knees up to her chin, but you will
never see her in the salesroom.
"a small woman is out of place in d
showroom" said Nine. Dsmorest,
when one OF her friends sought situa-
tion for q worthy but tundersized lady.
Il have no use for her there. She
cannot sell a pattern. People will not
go to her. They will hardly ask her
question. They will pass her by as
though she was a child, and go to
saleswoman more stylish and COM
manding. One is prominent and the
other insignificant, and the promi-
nent figure invariably attracts atten-
ton"
A place for the little lady was found
IN the mailing department at $6
week. At the same time a tall woman
of good figure, who carried her head
like a Juno, neither well educated nor
particularly agreeable, was placed in
the showroom at $14 per week. She
was not as refined nor painstaking as
the little one, but she had the ply
sique so highly priced by an expert
enced modiste. The little one rolled
ten hours a day, with hardly a respite.
while the big woman walked grandly
up and down the parlor, superintend-
ing sales and keeping everything trim.

THE SAN FRANCISCO THUGS.

The expose made by the Examiner Of
the existence Of II band of gilt edged
thugs in San Francisco who hire the
numbering of men for their insurance
money ought TO be pretty thoroughly
investigated before it is laughed down.
The Examiner has advanced some very
strong proofs in substitution OF its re-
mnrknble story, and this story cannot
be- laughed down by the San Francisco
press or whistled AWAY by the detective
rce. 1t has always been IL habit of the
San Francisco newspapers to make light
OF sensations which they dill not discov.
o.; and "n old trick of the police TO IL
nor: all revelations in the criminal line
which they did not make. 1t is charged
that DR.. L,sSelyn is the moving spirit
i'll the whole business. Josselyn has
bad very bad record in San Francisco.
For mnny Yeas, i'll that city, he has
been considered skilled ubortionist
and has been several times tried for the
offence. He WAS ut one time sentenced
to s rye term of three years in San
Quentin and the Case was taken to the
Supreme Court on appeal. 1t was re-
Vcrsed on some Of the petty tcchnicali-
ties which the Supreme Court of Cali
fornia delights to find md new trnl
ordered. For some reason or another
the case mysteriousIy diSnrpt AIRED from
the criminal calendar and Josselyn was
agmin ut large.
He is regarded in San Francisco rs II
iran who conld expose as many dead
full secrets in high society in San Fran
Cis:O rs Madam ResteIl cOEld in New
York. 1t il hnrd matter to convict a
,nan who has piled the unclrnnly craft
of I'M nbortioniot in II large city for any
10 18TH of time. He has but to intimate
to his fashionable patrons that in case
of his convintion he will tell MI he
knows, and the powerful machinery OF
social and political influence is Mt once
rot in motion, backed by untold wealth
to Slve him.
The progress of this cnse will be-
watched with interest 10y the people Oh
this Coast. Already the big newspapers
Mt the Bay IRE flying to his defense. the
detectives are sent ont to hnnt down the
Grim, and come bnck with flank faces.

have Josselyn convicted; he knuws too
much.--[ Carson Appeal.
